Default clacking noise in the head?

Does anyone know what that clacking noise could be? its coming from the head of the R on the right side, near the belts. I was told to get a valve adjustment, would that make the clacking noise go away?

Get a valve adjustment, if that didnt help, you might have bad lma's.

i believe i have the same problem... a pretty noticeable clacking sounds coming from the valve cover... i did a valve adjustment 1515235 times and they are fine... do lost motion assemblies often go bad? what causes them to go bad?
